Kid-Friendly Chicken Strips

If you're like me, your kids LOVE chicken nuggets! I've been on the hunt for a "healthier" version for them. When I came across these Chicken Strips, I had to try them, and you know what...the kids LOVED THEM!!!


I even asked my 5-year old son if he wanted those nasty processed nuggets, or if he wanted me to make these strips, and he didn't hesitate! He said "CHICKEN STRIPS!"


 Here's what you need!
Mustard (all I had was Honey Mustard), Corn Flakes, Honey, Egg & Chicken Breasts


Preheat your oven to 450 degrees. Cut your chicken into strips.

In a shallow bowl, combine egg, honey and mustard. In another dish, add the crushed cornflakes.


Dip chicken strips into egg mixture; roll in crumbs to coat. Arrange chicken strips on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 12 minutes, or until all sides are golden brown and chicken is cooked through!


Crispy Chicken Fingers Recipe
Makes: 4 servings

1 egg, slightly beaten
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon prepared mustard
2 cups cornflakes, finely crushed
Dash of black pepper


1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Cut chicken into 3-by-3/4-inch strips. In a shallow dish, combine egg, honey, and mustard. In another dish, stir together cornflake crumbs and pepper.
2. Dip chicken strips into the egg mixture; roll in crumb mixture to coat. Arrange chicken strips on an ungreased baking sheet.
3. Bake about 12 minutes, or until outsides are golden and chicken is no longer pink.

  3. I found a recipe a while ago that used Corn Flakes so I waited for a sale and picked up a few boxes. I have done nothing with them. I am totally going to have to try this! I did try the ones with Captain Crunch like they had at Planet Hollywood which I loved but my husband disliked. Maybe these will be a winner :)

  15. These look delicious. My kids love chicken nuggets, too, but I can't stand the thought of giving them to them! These, however, look amazing! And easy. I can't wait to try them out. Thanks for linking them up at the pin it proudly link party last week. I can't wait to see what you link up this week
